for us, our federal workers look to john to watch out for them, to make sure they have a safe work environment, that their paychecks will arrive on time and the benefits they earn are the ones they receive. under president clinton, john served as deputy assistant secretary and acting assistant secretary for law enforcement at the treasury department. overseeing the united states secret service and the bureau of alcohol, tobacco and firearms. and he later moved to the interior department where he was assistant secretary for policy, management and budget, essentially the manager of the department of interior. before coming to the office of personnel management, john spent nearly a decade working on conservation as director of the fish and wildlife foundation, and then arguably the job he perhaps has enjoyed most, he became director of the national zoo. at the national zoo, he was so successful turning around a faltering institution that after he left they named a lion in his honor. john indeed was a lion, a lion on behalf of the federal employees, a lion on behalf of good government, a lion on b

establish a neutral set of rules that govern everyone, a set of rules that is designed to create an environment of law and order rather than one of chaos, and then make sure those rules are implemented in an even-handed fashion so as not to advantage any particular business at the expense of another. that is the best way government can support that, and when the government tries to go beyond that or promises to go beyond that, it usually ends up picking the winners and losers, and it becomes destructive to the free market economy and to the interest we're trying to achieve through the free market economy and a robust, free civil society. >> frances johnson, planning initiative. we have a challenge before us of gaining more of the general public or least a set of them who will see the wisdom we're talking about here, and then, if you will, support legislators and senators for congress who believe the same thing. now, a way to enlarge these people may be to start with the end game, tell some stories about particular people with names or surrogate names that have been benefited by the system, the

remember, 4.5 billion is what we spend for a day to operate in that environment. saving two when you are -- will not go on the street with the exception of package delivery, which will be done with dynamic routing, with a lower cost employee, whether in the rural or city craft, allows us to provide that kind of service as a lower cost. the mail costs, the transportation costs, network changes, that's all money that can come out of the system. we've also calculated in what we think is the revenue loss and we've talked to a lot of customers to validate that. so the 2 billion is doable. people say well, it's only two out of 20 billion. it is not. if we had it this year we would break even from an operational standpoint. this year we'll lose ago 1.7 billion in the operating line. that's revenue minus costs with the exception of workers' comp costs and prefunding. we would make money if we had made the six to five move at the beginning of this year. that gap exists when you do nothing over a five, six, four or five-year period and with inflation that continues to grow.
